I never used default config types for firewall, so, it would be nice to
see what rules do you have.
# ipfw show
# ipfw nat show config

This is most likely due to the problem with firewall rules.
If you set net.inet.ip.firewall.enable=0, does it solve the problem with
TCP/UDP between hosts on a different VLANs?

Yes.

It is very strange problems, why ICMP works, but TCP/UDP does not? :)
You can try to disable any type of offloading for the card, there were
some problems in the past with checksum offlading, that may lead to the
problems with TCP, but this usually should be noticeable in the tcpdump
output.
